Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method of manufacturing a hub body for a spoke wheel. It also relates to a hub body made according to the method, a hub and a spoke wheel comprising such a hub body.

FR 2,736,869 , or US 5,626,401 .
  • attachment flanges are generally discs with perforations in which the spoke heads are retained.
  • Patent applications EP 004 155 and EP 039 021 describe such hubs.
  • the hub is made of light metal, including an aluminum alloy or titanium and is shaped by machining.
  • a first technique consists in machining a solid cylindrical bar. This technique is particularly suitable for small series. It requires little investment tooling. On the other hand, there is a lot of material loss, and the machining is long and expensive.
  • a hot-stamped or cold-stamped blank is initially produced which roughly presents the shape of the hub body, and then the blank is machined to its final shape.
  • This technique allows a significant gain in material.
  • a complete re-machining of the blank is necessary because its shape and dimensions are not very accurate. It also requires important tools. Therefore this technique is suitable for medium or large series.
  • the blank is molded in shell or die casting.
  • This rather crude technique is not suitable for light alloys having high mechanical properties.
  • some alloys compatible with this molding technique are not suitable for finishing treatments, such as anodizing, which can be inconvenient.

  • This method is applicable to the manufacture of a hub body, the hub body having a central axis of revolution and comprising two attachment plates of the spokes joined by a tubular connecting spacer, the flanges having a central orifice for the passage of the hub shaft and orifices or peripheral cuts for fastening the spokes.

  • Figure 1 shows a bar 10 which is for example a solid bar made of extruded aluminum alloy.
  • Figure 2 shows a blank 11 of the hub body which is obtained after a first machining phase.
  • the operations performed consist of turning operations which give the blank 11 its outer shape and its final dimensions relative to the axis of rotation of the hub, and a cutting operation of the bar 11. This cutting operation can be performed before or after shooting. Also during these operations a middle bore 12 is made which will subsequently be traversed by the hub shaft, possibly with chambers which will form housing for the bearings.
  • Figure 3 shows the final hub body 16 after the recovery phase.
  • the flanges are pierced with holes 18 provided for the attachment of the spokes.
  • the holes can be chamfered to fit the seat of the spoke head and improve its seating.
  • the hub body can undergo finishing operations, for example shot blasting and optionally anodizing.
  • the machining of the outer shape, the median housing, and where appropriate, the cutting can be performed on a turning machine or an equivalent machine where the workpiece is rotated around its axis of revolution.
  • the holes 18 are made separately with a particular tool and in particular with the aid of specific burs and this operation generates a clean production time which is added to the turning time.
  • the basic idea of the invention is to provide an element of the hub body namely at least one of the flanges, and if necessary the spacer or the entire hub body not from a bar full, but a perforated section, that is to say which has in its structure one or longitudinal cutouts opening or not to the outer surface of the bar.
  • the shape of these blanks, with regard to the flanges is provided so that at the end of a turning or sawing phase intended in particular to cut the flange from the profile and possibly to make stops as well as as will be seen below, the cutouts form orifices or notches for the attachment of the rays. These orifices or notches were created beforehand during the recovery operation using special tools. With the solution according to the invention, the cuts obtained using the perforated profile are sufficiently precise and do not need to be included as such to form the attachment holes.
  • the spinning technique which consists in pushing an alloy in the pasty state (approximately 500 ° C.) through a die makes it possible to produce profiles that can have complex shapes, with precise dimensions, and at a cost economic.
  • the cuts are obtained by needles placed in the die which constitute an obstacle in the flow of material passing through the die.
  • the profile obtained can measure several meters.
  • This technique is particularly well suited to aluminum alloys of the 6000 series (aluminum + silicon + magnesium) which can be hardened by quenching directly at the press outlet during the spinning operation, followed by an additional income at oven.
  • the spacer In the profile one can be made and / or the other flange or the hub body in one piece.
  • the spacer When the spacer is reported, it can be made in a profile obtained by spinning, cut and if necessary machined by a turning technique, such as the profile used for the flanges.
  • the advantage of a reported spacer is a significant material gain and the possibility of making the flanges and the spacer in different materials, including a different alloy.
  • Sawing (bucking) and turning are particularly economical machining methods that require standard tooling and therefore inexpensive. They can be easily implemented and if necessary automated, that is to say that the hub bodies or the flanges can be made individually on a traditional lathe or in series on a bar turning machine from the bar section. Bar turning is considered here as a particular mode of shooting.

  • These cuts have a double buttonhole-shaped section, with a medial portion 25a of substantially rectangular shape or in a circular arc which has a transverse dimension large enough to allow the introduction of a bent radius head, and towards each end a substantially circular portion 25b, 25c of smaller size.

  • This solution is preferred because it makes it possible to reduce the number of needles on the die relative to the number of spokes.
  • the thickness of the discs is determined at the cutouts 25 according to the dimensions of the elbow formed by the rays, so as to allow the attachment of the rays in the portions of smaller dimension, as illustrated in FIG. 28 to 33.

  • This material penetrates in particular into the cutout or central orifice 22 of each flange 34 , 35 and in the radial extensions 23 of this orifice 22. This ensures the relative centering of the flanges 34, 35 on the axis of revolution of the hub, and also makes the flanges integral in rotation with angular indexing to respect the alternation spokes at the rim.

  • a profile like the profile 20 but without the radial extensions 23 of its central orifice 22 can allow the realization of a monobloc hub body only by turning operations. Indeed, by machining such a profile in the mass can be made the two end discs forming the flanges 34, 35 and the connecting spacer 36, all in one piece on a lathe or machine bar turning. However, a large amount of material is to be removed at the spacer to reduce the diameter of the profile.

  • the intermediate stage 43b has a width which makes it fit to be traversed by the body 54 of a spoke 53 , while prohibiting the passage of its head 55.
  • the width of the upper stage 43c is smaller than the diameter of the body 54 radius to prohibit the passage of the radius body. What is important is that at this stage 43c the two edges 44 of the blank are sufficiently constricted to act as an axial stop relative to the body 54 of radius (see Figure 10). At the limit the two edges 44 could meet, but spinning it would make it more difficult to achieve the lower floors which would then form closed cutouts.
